The epistle of Philemon teaches us that all things work together for good to Christians. "This is a promise we can claim when we go through difficult times, especially nowadays when our world situation is so unprecedented", This a good quotation to convey the whole meaning of the book.

AVS, Goodreads, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book offers thoughtful ideas. What I especially appreciated was how it takes one verse and explains it in depth, that helped me connect more personally with the message.

Koh breathes new life into the often-overlooked letter of Philemon, transforming it into a moving reflection on pride, mercy, and the courage of forgiveness. With clarity and heart, he bridges ancient text and modern relevance, capturing the tension between power and humility. Each verse feels alive, inviting readers to see grace not as theory, but as bold, transformative action. Despite its brevity, this devotional carries lasting spiritual weight. Simple, powerful, and quietly convicting. Linda Franco, Amazon, ⭐⭐⭐⭐
